First: sodium chloride does NOT react with water, H2O, nor with carbon dioxide, CO2.

However when some fine salt particles are put in a glass of carbonated water, a lot of gas bubbles evolve from the dissolving particles.

When completely dissolved almost nothing will occur. How come?

At the 'liquid (carbon. water) / solid (salt part'ls)' interface there will be a 'struggle' for water molecules, won by the much more soluble salt particles, lost by the rather badly soluble gas molecules. That's how those carbon dioxide molecules are 'stripped off' their surrounding -solublizing- water molecules, now only capable of 'sticking' together in (escaping) gas bubbles.

Which gas is evolved when hydrochloric acid is added over a piece of marble in one test tube and on zinc granules in the second test tube?

Zinc (Zn) reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl) to produce zinc chloride (ZnCl2), a salt and hydrogen gas (H2). Marble is primarily composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl) to form Calcium Chloride (CaCl2) which is a salt, water (H2O), and carbon dioxide gas (CO2). The first test tube with water evolves carbon dioxide and the second test tube with zinc granules evolves hydrogen gas.


Why does soda have acid?

Soda is carbonated, meaning that it has carbon dioxide dissolved in it. Some of this carbon dioxide (CO2) reacts with water (H2O) to form carbonic acid (H2CO3), which makes it acidic

Which acid reacts with copper carbonate to produce copper chloride carbon dioxide and water?

Since copper chloride is produced, the acid must contain a chloride atom. The acid that fits this criterion is hydrochloric acid.
